A World Where Youth Hold the Power 47 Adeola A. Oredola with members of Youth in Action The space cultivated by the youth leadership development organization Youth In Action puts young people, traditionally marginalized by adult decision-makers, at the center of change in the community. 1 Annenberg Institute for School Reform This issue of Voices in Urban Education is dedicated to Matthew Bradley, an assistant professor for the Honors College at the University of Utah and a teacher of honors classes at AMES High School. A longtime teacher activist, he was instrumental in bringing the 2013 Free Minds, Free People conference to Salt Lake City. Matthew Wade Bradley August 19, 1970 – March 20, 2012 Déjenme decirles, a riesgo de parecer ridículo, que el revolucionario verdadero está guiado por grandes sentimientos de amor. At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love. – Che Guevara, letter to Carlos Quijano This was one of Matt Bradley’s favorite quotes, words he lived by as an activist, teacher, scholar, friend, and community member. Matt believed in the transformative power of education for liberation and worked to cre- ate access to education for all people, and in particular he struggled with others to fight for undocumented students’ rights to education. Matt was a powerful life force in our community and universe, whose sense of purpose, commitment, and vision continues to inspire us all to be our best selves. Carrying him in our hearts and minds, we commit to live our lives with full and wild abandon: to laugh, play, and imagine new ways to live together; to read poetry; to ride bikes; to grow gardens; to eat fresh tomatoes and chilis (any and everything spicy!); to be respectful of others; to create alterna- tive creative spaces for dialogue, teaching and learning, organizing, critical thinking, collective action, art, and social justice. – Mestizo Arts and Activism Collective Free Minds, Free People Salt Lake City Team June 2012 2 Annenberg Institute for School Reform Free Minds, Free People: Education for a Just, Multiracial Future Keith Catone s the field of education follows myriad paths of reform, not enough of us are stopping to consider the essential question: For Awhat? We must close achievement gaps . for what? We must measure and evaluate teacher effectiveness . for what? We must develop and adhere to high quality standards . for what? We must race to the top . for what? In other words, to what end are we engaged in educa- tional experiences? Implicit – at times explicit – aims of the most popular mainstream education reform trends center around global competition and economic prowess.1 Little seems focused on the core functions of education as the necessary threads weaving the democratic fabric of society. Even less focus is on the liberatory potential of education, on its importance in forming the most basic foundation of our individual and collective humanness. The Free Minds, Free People (FMFP) conference and the Education for Liberation Network seek to understand, frame, and practice education for the purpose of freedom – a true collective realization of liberty and justice for all. In 2009, a group of young people and their adult allies from Youth In Action traveled from Providence to Houston to attend the second- ever FMFP. They experienced a space cultivated by the conference that was authentically intergenerational, supporting the voices and ideas of young and old alike to coexist in dialogue. They experienced a conference dedicated to lifting up those most historically marginalized from power and understood that such a space has the potential to empower people to imagine and then work to make real the change they want to see in the world. They returned to Providence energized and poised to work to bring FMFP to their city. I was lucky enough to be part of the Youth In Action family and served as one of the local conference organizers. The power of working with educators and young people from across the country to make FMFP a reality in Providence in July 2011 was awe-inspiring. The most amazing part of the FMFP experience is the way in which the conference builds the space for all participants to be seen and heard. Participants do not gain special attention for their titles and degrees, but 1 See, for example, the recently released “U.S. Education Reform and National Security” report from the Council on Foreign Relations (www.cfr.org/united-states/ us-education-reform-national-security/p27618). Keith Catone is a senior research associate at the Annenberg Institute for School Reform. 3 Annenberg Institute for School Reform rather for the value of their contributions to the field of education for liberation. When university professors speak as equals alongside youth activists, and young people are treated as experts about their own realities, both groups are humanized. The conference aspires to have participants bring their whole selves to the fore and to contribute their full humanness for others to see and understand. More broadly, our society is without an education for liberation, without free minds and free people. Instead, we live in a society with a stark inability to recognize the humanity of all its members.

BODIES IN THE MARGINS Refiguring the Rebetika as Literature Sophia Schlesinger Faculty Advisor: Andrea Kaston-Tange Macalester English Department Submitted April 25th, 2020 Abstract This thesis engages a literary analysis of a corpus of songs and recordings known as the rebetika (sing. rebetiko), which prospered in the port districts of major cities throughout the Aegean in the early 20th century. Engaging the rebetika as literary texts, I argue, helps us understand how they have functioned as a kind of pressure point on the borders between nation and Other. Without making unproveable biographical claims about the motives of the music progenitors, I examine why so many have reached for the rebetika as texts with which to articulate various political and cultural desires. Using a multidisciplinary theoretical framework that includes Elaine Scarry, Stuart Hall, Edward Said, Mark C.

  • Queer Refugeeism: Constructions of Race, Gender, and Sexuality in the Hmong Diaspora
    Queer Refugeeism: Constructions of Race, Gender, and Sexuality in the Hmong Diaspora A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Kong Pheng Pha IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Jigna Desai, Co-Advisor Erika Lee, Co-Advisor August 2017 © Kong Pheng Pha 2017 Acknowledgments As I reflect on this long-drawn-out and arduous journey towards the completion of my Ph.D. degree, I cannot help but feel bittersweet and downhearted all at once. It was never my plans to attend graduate school, and I had only learned about what a Ph.D. really was right before graduating from college. I am able to be where I am now through a combination of luck, perseverance, guidance, mentorship, encouragement, friendships, and love from others. Graduate school so far has been one of the most challenging times of my life, especially as I struggled to make time for my friends, family, and loved ones with a busy schedule. I was always writing and reading at random and unusual times: night, day, midnight, and mid-day. I was financially—and at times emotionally— unstable, during college and my early days of graduate school, and relied on the assistance of my parents, siblings, friends, colleagues, and mentors for all kinds of support and care. However, the cruelest and most painful thing of all was being a working-class, queer scholar of color going through the tortuous feelings of isolation, self-doubt, anger, fear, shame, selfishness, restlessness, and uselessness that came with being in a perpetual cycle of graduate school and writing a seemingly unending dissertation.
